5. Cool Down the Overheated Console
The chances are high that your PS5 console is somehow getting overheated and that’s why the gaming performance becomes low. The overheating issue can also trigger conflicts with the graphics during gameplay sessions. It’s recommended to give your console some rest for at least half an hour and shut down the system when not in use. You should also allow proper air ventilation to keep it cool down.
6. Ensure to Properly Connect the HDMI Cable
Try disconnecting the HDMI cable from the display device and the PS5 console then reconnect the HDMI cable again to the console. This method also comes in handy for a couple of players.
7. Check Your Internet Connection
Sometimes issues with poor or unstable internet connectivity at your end might also trouble you a lot when it comes to graphical glitches and texture loading glitches during gameplay sessions. So, you should try checking your internet connection manually to ensure there is no issue with the shader loading. Try switching from a wired to a wireless network or vice versa.
Otherwise, you can use a different network to check for the issue. If the network issue persists, you should contact your internet service provider (ISP) to get better technical help.
Another thing you’ll need to check if the PlayStation Network Service Status is working fine and operational. In case, there is no issue with the service status, you’re good to go. Additionally, you can check the @finalfantasyvii X account to get the latest updates or info regarding the server issue and other in-game issues.
